The Department of Trade, Industry and Competition (the dtic) has taken note of reports that it has objected to the Procurement Bill tabled at the National Council of Provinces (NCOP). the dtic advises that it has no objection to the Bill and looks forward to its expeditious adoption and implementation.
The Bill constitutes a significant step forward in promoting localisation and Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE). An email submission that was sent to the Standing Committee on Finance constitutes the view of an official and was not authorised by the Department.
